Foundry 42 Opening Contest

Greetings Citizens,

The team at Foundry 42 is moving in to their new home, and they’ve found some cool prizes to give away in the process! Erin Roberts and his team have been working together on space sims since the early days of Wing Commander, and in the process they’ve acquired some cool collectibles. Today, they’re giving some of them to the community! If you know your gaming history, vote in the poll below. Users who select the correct answer will be entered in a drawing to win one of the prizes listed below.

Prizes

First Prize: One of only two Wing Commander 3 Leather Flight Jackets belonging to Chris Roberts, made for the development team 18 years ago. Chris left it at his brother’s house 15-odd years ago and it has been there ever since. Now you have a chance to own it!

Second Prize: An Idris-M corvette for Star Citizen, the rare military model which will be seen in Squadron 42!

Third Prize: The “Heretic,” a 3 1/2 ft physical model of one of the ships in Privateer 2. Nicknamed “Luftwaffe Pants” by the dev team.

A smaller advertising card and a signed copy of P2 by Erin, Nick and Phil.

Fourth Prize: A Star Citizen battle pack consisting of an Anvil Aerospace Hornet and a Vanduul Scythe add-on ship. Both of these spacecraft will feature prominently in Squadron 42’s storyline!
